Day at
Palomar
College
A colorful Sadie Hawkins Day race was enacted last Friday, Nov. 12th, with some of the elegible Dogpatchers running so hard one would have thought there were "rev-nooers chasin' em." Even though it never happens in Dogpatch all of Palomar's Dogpatchers were cornered with dispatch, with the exception of one athletic speciman who retreated to a rooftop, fearing to eat any lunch thrust upon him by the victorious females. Later that evening, after catching their wind, the Palomar students gathered at William's Barn for a r eal old Dogpatch stomp. (For other pictures see page 3)

CAL BAPTIST
"TWO BLIND MICE" OPENS
by Walter (Bud) Gerstle
Before a capacity audience, the Palomar Players presented their first play of the season, TWO BLIND MICE, last Friday night. A light comedy about red tape in government and the trials and tribulations of two old ladies who are running an abolished government office, TWO BLIND MICE was very well received by an appreciative audience. The cast for the play includes Virginia Prunier as a domineering widowed aunt, Shirley Shrader as the second old lady, and Bob Mitche ll as a practical joker who enjoys heckling government bigwigs. Other actors are Hal Halsley, Ernie Medina, Barbara Thurber, Kent Lansing, Jim Tarling, Graham Knox , John Marron, Art Prunier, Joe Buck, Marcia Smith, Arlene Knappe, Dave Knight, and Lois Foster. TWO BLIND MICE will continue its run until November 27.
Six letter-veterans will lead a fiery Comet attack on Cal-Baptist's staid Deacons Thursday, November 26, at the Vista High School Gymnasium. Veterans and freshmen Comets have been r e charging flame -power and increasing speed for over a week now on the very floor where the contest will be he ld. This, the first of eight exhibition games, will feature some promising rookies, in addition to the familiar faces of Don Portis, Don Broyles, George Cordry, Jan Berlin, "Bevo" Whited, and Ray Canfie ld, all of whom won letters last year. The Palomar Comets will find the Deacons again obstructing their orbit on December 17, five weeks previous to the first official league game of the 1954-55 season. The Deacons will be turning the other cheek to comple te the black-face minstrel makeup job which for 21 days will have been only half administered .
